Control method, control system, information processing apparatus, and computer-readable non-transitory medium

Abstract

A computer-readable, non-transitory medium storing therein an application control program that causes an information processing machine to execute a procedure, the procedure includes, receiving an activation request that requests an activation of a first application of the information processing machine, monitoring another information processing machine that executes a second application corresponding to the first application, and, activating the first application in response to the activation request when a stoppage of an operating system of the another information processing machine is detected.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A computer-readable, non-transitory medium storing therein an application control program that causes an information processing machine to execute a procedure, the procedure comprising:
 receiving an activation request that requests an activation of a first application of the information processing machine;   monitoring another information processing machine that executes a second application corresponding to the first application; and   activating the first application in response to the activation request when a stoppage of an operating system of the another information processing machine is detected.   
     
     
         2 . The computer-readable, non-transitory medium according to  claim 1 , the operation further comprising:
 activating the first application after stopping the operation system with a stopping unit for stopping the operating system when the stoppage of the operating system is not able to be detected.   
     
     
         3 . The control program according to  claim 1 , wherein the activation request includes information that indicates that the activation of the first application is a forced activation. 
     
     
         4 . A control method executed by an information processing machine, the method comprising:
 receiving an activation request that requests an activation of a first application of the information processing machine;   monitoring another information processing machine that executes a second application corresponding to the first application; and   activating the first application in response to the activation request when a stoppage of an operating system of another information processing machine is detected.   
     
     
         5 . A control system comprising:
 a control device that sends an activation request;   a first information processing machine that stores a first application, receives the activation request, and monitors other information processing machine;   a second information processing machine that is monitored by the first information processing machine and stores a second application, the second application corresponding to the first application; wherein   the first information processing machine sends a stoppage request of an operating system to the second information processing machine when the stoppage of the operating system is not monitored and the activation request is received,   the second information processing machine stops the operating system in response to the stoppage request, and   the first information processing machine activates the first application when the stoppage of the operating system is detected.
